Nobel prize winner Simon Kuznets was the first one who advanced the hypothesis in 1950s and 1960s. Kuznets curve shows that as the nation undergoes industralization there is a migration of rural people to urban places. Since more industralization means more labour required and hence rural population looking for better wages, they shift to urban areas and causes rural-urban inequality. First the inequality increases and then it is expected to decrease when a certain level of average income is reached. Kuznets curve follows an inverted &#8216;U&#8217; shape. In 1991 Grossman and Krusser established the Environmental Kuznets curve and that became a standard feature of environmental policy.<\/p>\n<p>Environmental Kuznets curve is a relationship between various indicators of environmental degradtion and income per capita. It follows an inverted &#8216;U&#8217; shape, as in earlier stages with the increase in pollution there is economic degradation but after a particular level of income per capita the trend reverses ie high income level economies growth leads to environmental improvement. In most of the rapidly growing countries with increase in pollution there is degradation, and in wealthy economies growth is slower and pollution reduction efforts can overcome. So the only way to attain a decent environment condition is to become a rich nation.<\/p>\n<p>If we talk about Envirnomental Kuznets curve relation for country like India , India is one of the fastest developing economy and therefore the nation is facing a very tough trade off between economic growth and environmental protection. In India damage caused by pollution is estimated to cost $14 billion annually which is around 4.5% to 6% of GDP (Economic Survey of India; 1998-1999). To resolve the environmental degradation, Governman of India has initiated\u00a0many environmental\u00a0\u00a0policies from late 1970s , Enviromental Kuznets curve hypothesis has helped to realise that India needs\u00a0to improve technologies and policies that helps to reduce environmental degradation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/certifications\">Click here for government certifications<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kuznets curve graphs the hypothesis that as an economy develops market forces first increases and then decreases inequality.
